My colleague has just send me, and a number of other
members of Staff, a meeting request. When it arrived with
one of the recipient's. the times of the meetings had been
brought forward by one hour. In addition, the message
seemed to have been sent to her an hour earlier than it
was!

We are all working off the same server, so should be
picking up the same times etc.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Dave
 
Check to make sure that your time settings are correct and that the box is
checked to adjust for daylight savings time. (This is in the control panel.)

In Outlook, make sure that it is set to adjust for daylight savings time.
(Tools | Options | Calendar | Time Zone.)

We had the exact same problem at our company and unfortunately had to
call Microsoft. The problem was that certain people were on the
daylight savings time setting, and others were not. When daylight
savings time kicked in, the ones who didn't have that option checked
on their system were pushed forward an hour. Unfortunately, the only
way to fix this is making sure all users have the daylight savings
setting checked and resending and resetting up every appointment and
meeting request that was sent from a machine with out the daylight
savings option checked. Microsoft explained that this was a Yes/No
integer in the Outlook code, so without writing your own script, this
must be done on every mailbox. Once all users are on DST the meetings
etc... will start working themselves out and eventually you will be
all caught up. But it's a pain getting there. Good Luck!

Couple of quick questions though. Should both windows xp and outlook be
check marked to set to adjust for daylight savings or just one of them and
if so which one
 
both. (i've found that under windows xp, if the os is off and outlook is
on, outlook will eventually turn its option back off.)
